23 Years in Relationship with Real Estate

Kate Leonchenkova

Meet Your Trusted Seattle Area Real Estate Advisor

I moved to the Seattle area in 1998 at the age of 18. Although I earned my college degree in Graphic Design, purchasing my first property shortly after graduation ignited a passion that would define my career. I earned my real estate license that same year and have been helping clients navigate the real estate market ever since.

With more than 25 years of experience, hundreds of successful transactions, and a business built largely on repeat clients and referrals, I am proud to serve as a full-time real estate broker. My greatest satisfaction comes from building lasting relationships and helping clients achieve their real estate goals with confidence.

Whether you're buying your first home, selling a luxury property, expanding your investment portfolio, or relocating to the Pacific Northwest, I provide knowledgeable guidance, strategic planning, and personalized service every step of the way.

My areas of expertise include:

  • Residential Real Estate
  • Commercial Real Estate
  • Property Management
  • Airbnb and Short-Term Rental Investments
  • Investment Properties
  • Home Remodeling and House Flipping
  • Relocation Services
  • First-Time Homebuyers
  • Luxury Homes
  • Seller Representation and Buyer Representation

 

My mission is to become your most trusted real estate advisor by providing exceptional service, honest communication, and expert market knowledge. I help clients identify opportunities, minimize risk, and make informed decisions that build long-term wealth through real estate.

Whether you're purchasing, selling, investing, managing rental properties, remodeling for resale, or relocating, I offer the experience, resources, and dedication to make the process seamless and successful.

Real estate is more than a transaction—it's about building a future. My commitment is to help you create lasting value through every real estate decision you make. I look forward to earning your trust and being your lifelong real estate resource.

Clean lines, warm finishes, and open country views define this brand-new contemporary home in one of Silverton's newest neighborhoods.

The vaulted living room centers on a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone gas fireplace with a natural wood mantel, flanked by lit built-ins and open shelving. The kitchen pairs white uppers with warm taupe lowers, quartz counters, a generous island with seating, a pot filler over the gas range, and a butler's pantry. A glass-enclosed, lit wine display tucked beneath the stairs adds a gallery-like moment, and a built-in drop zone with bench and hooks keeps the everyday organized. A main-level den works well as a home office or flex space.Upstairs, three bedrooms include a primary suite with country views and a bath with a freestanding soaking tub. In all, there are 2 full and 1 half baths across about 2,640 sq ft.The fenced backyard backs to farmland, so the view out back is open fields rather than a neighbor's windows. A covered deck extends the living space, and a gated side yard leads to an RV or boat pad. Central air and a two-car attached garage round it out.
